The separation and the death of loved ones are
the most devastating events of our existence!
For an immigrant in process to obtain his
permanent residence, the legal end of his
relationship with the petitioner becomes one of
the most tragic periods of delay of his life and
a time of great uncertainty.
Thousands are caught without protection. It
happens before the period required to obtain the
legal benefits or before the approval of the
proceeding, and many, although they could
benefit cannot demonstrate that they will not
become a public charge, and therefore they are
eventually removed of the country, without any
defense.
Generally, the immigrant desperate for his
legalization and without proper advice from a
professional consultant's office, clings to the
first option that finds; his citizen or resident
relative, or his own employer. Risking
everything for his legalization he forgets that
the petitioner, although is a person with desire
to help him, lacks the necessary means to
guarantee economic solidity or simply; that he
is old and he could pass away during the
process.
Like in everything; a professional analysis, a
good strategy of diversification and a
meticulous preparation of the case, can be of
transcendental importance.
When the United States government considers the
admission of an immigrant, it reviews dozens of
contingencies that could characterize the
immigrant as inadmissible. Also, you must
reflect on your future admissibility. I mean
that you must consider several points; not only
the relation that you maintain with the
petitioner; but also the age, physical
conditions and economic position of the
petitioner, before beginning the process of
residence. This way you will be prepared for any
outcome.
Remember that there’s always much more to
analyze before formulating a legal strategy.
